ITSY BITSY SPIDER, — CHAPTER #10 — PLEASE, DON'T KILL ME!

The three of you were walking until Inosuke felt something in his hands. "Huh? What the hell is this?"

"It's spider web..." That's right. There was spider web everywhere, along with some spiders.

'Ew. Ew. EW! SO MANY LITTLE SPIDERS! NO, I CAN'T DO THIS!' Tanjiro turned around, feeling your shivering

"Hey (L/N), it's alright. It's only web, see?" He tried to convince you that there was nothing to be scared of.

"Jeez, this place is full of spider webs! What a fucking pain!" He shook his hand to get rid of them.

"That's right. (L/N), Inosuke..."

"What?"

"Thanks. You both said you'd come with me and I felt really encouraged."

"..." You and Inosuke just looked at him, dumbfounded.

"That twisted, ominous scent I was picking up from the mountain... It made me freeze a little. So, thanks!"

You smiled warmly at him and gently brought your intertwined hands to your chest, giving it a tender squeeze. This made Tanjiro's face go red for a little, but you didn't notice. In that moment, you made a silent promise to to set aside your fears. After all, he was precious to you.

Inosuke, surrounded by the white fluffy balls, felt an unfamiliar sensation stirring in his stomach. It was a strange mix of curiosity and warmth, making him wonder about the significance of this moment.

Your brief, heartfelt exchange came to an end as Tanjiro's senses picked up on something out of the ordinary. "Inosuke, (L/N)! Let's go!"

Following his lead, you turned your attention to a visibly anxious boy who seemed to be fixated on something, his gaze filled with tension and anticipation.

'THAT'S MURATA! YAY! I LIKE MURATA!'

"Hello, we've come for backup." Stated Tanjiro to him. "I'm Kamado Tanjiro, rank Mizunoto."

"Mizunoto... Mizunoto?! Why didn't they send a Hashira?! No matter how many Mizunoto they send, it won't help! It's pointless!"

Inosuke then punched the boy with no mercy.

"Inosuke! Don't punch him! Goddamit!" He scolded him like a dog.

"SHUT THE FUCK UP! AS FAR AS POINTLESSNESS GOES, YOUR EXISTENCE ITSELF HAS NO POINT AT ALL!" He grabbed Murata by his hair.

"Pfff-" You shut your mouth before any more laughs would come out.

"Now, tell us what's going on, you spineless fool!"

"And who the fuck do you think you are? Did you forget that I have seniority?!" As Murata started explaining the situation, your attention began to drift away from the conversation. Your mind went into a state of heightened alertness because you knew that the demon slayers under the control of the Mother Spider would soon make their appearance.

"What is this sound?" Asked Tanjiro looking around.

"There is it again! It's this sound again! I heard this sound, and the next thing I knew, everyone started killing each other!"
